Her History Mixed.

There was q very pretty young lady
last summer, who was leading flock
of friends of her own age over the Isles
of Shoals. You will remember that
brave John Smith discovered these
isles, which should, by right, have
borne his name; but he was busy and
restless fellow, who set foot in many
New England hooks, and left his
memory there, as well as in the glades
of Virginia On Star Island, the mostin-
teresting of the Shoals, some of the by
gone inhabitants have put up q monu-
ment to Captain Smith. The wording
on it is, clumsy and queer, but the kind
ly and right feeling makes up for that
Our accurate young lady spied the
monument, and piloted the eyes of her
party toward it with her parasol.
''That's Smith, she said.
'sWho's Smith?n asked one Of the
grown boys, an unenlightened boy he
was, to be sure.
"Why, it's the Smith that cut of
Pocahontas' headr' she replied. with
extreme distrust for his Ignorance.

The chamois Is only occasionally
hunted now, except by skilled hunters
who have been brought UP in the busi-
ness, and the little creatures are COM
paratively rare. There are several
varieties of them, but only one distinct
species-the Rupicapru, found in the
European Alps. from the Pyrenees to
the Caucasus; familiar animal in
the museums, though rarely
seen alive. The chamois-is' about two
feet six inches high at the shoulder,
and three feet in length. The horns
are small, erect and turned at the tips,
giving the little animal avery jaunty
appearance. The hair is q dense,
coarse. brownish red. being. as . rule,
darker in winter.
They travel in bands of from twenty
to fifty, generally led by doe, the old
bucks Eeading a more solitary life: They
are remarkably active, dashing down
the steepest precipices with a suue foot;
and so keen is their scent that it Is al
most impossible to approach them At
the first intimation of danger the
doe on guard warns the rest by a shrill
whistle, at the same time stamping her
feet as it to insure attention. and Oft
they go, syer places where it would not
be deemed possible, and where hunters
can not follow. Four-horned chanrois
have beep found, the two sets of horns

ance. This, however, is merely AN &C
cidental occurrence.
At certain seasons of the year" the
bucks become extremely pugnacious,
and terrific duels are frequently fought
on the tops of the lofty peaks, and often
the defeated chamois has been hurled
by it's adversary over the cliff to de-
struction below, while, in the back
ground, the rest of the herd are
anxiously awaiting the termination OF
the battle The colors of both sexes
are about the same. The female
chamois is slightly smaller than the
male TIE kids are of a deep yellow
ish-brown color, having the under jaw,
both sides of the head and the throat
white. Much of the so-called channels
leather comes from these little animals,
that in some parts of Austria are still
found in herds of fifty or more. The
beautiful horns are much valued in
Switzerland, where they are made into
ornaments Of various kinds, as knife
and paper-eutter handles, while even
the hoofs are used in many ways. The
chamois is believed to be gradually on
the decrease, and perhaps some of the
present generation may live to see their
total extinction. - Charles Frederick

CLARK UNIVERSITY.
An Educational Institution to BE Founded
in the CITY of Worcester, Mass.

An Educational Institution to Be Founded
in the City of Worcester, Mass.
Jonas Gilman Clark, the wealth1est
citizen of Worcester, Mass, has an
nounced his intention of founding in
that city an institution, for the promo
ton of learning in all its higher
branches, to be called Clark University.
He will start it with an endowment of
$1,O0O,O0O Eight well-known gentle
men of Worcester are associated with
him in the petition for incorporation.
Mr.. Clark SAYS he does not expect to
start at once university complete in
all respects; but it will be on the
broadest possible basis SO far as instruc-
ton is concerned, 1t will not be, in
sense, denominational. There will be
religious teaching, but it will be free
from any technicalities of belief. There
will be in connection with it a law
school, medical school, and possibly a
school of theology. The main college
buildings will set back from Main
street near the Woodland street line.
If the citizens offer substantial evidence
of sympathy and support, Mr.. Clark
will further generously endow the
institution as. its needs become ap-
parent Mr.. Clark's death will make
no difference in the plan. He intends
that the new university shall in time
fairly rival Harvard in scope and
National reputation, and he has ample
funds to carry out his ideas.-M I.

The Bureau of Statistics on the "Ncw
South.'

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2.-The Bureau of
Statistics yesterday issued large
volume, q report upon the commercial and
industrial condition, transportation and
other facilities of Virginia, North Caro-
lima, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida,
Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Ten
nessee and Kentucky.
The information was collected by export
agents detailed to each of these ten
States. The development of transports =
ton by railroad and water, the growth of
agricultural and mineral operations, ETC.,
are given in great detail. Chief SwitzlcF,
in reviewing the reports, says:
Whatever speculations may be deduceu
from the exhibit here made, or the lessons
it may teach our statesmen, it will not be
questioned that the reports furnish evil
dences of recuperatve energy, and OF
material, progress and development by
the Southern people, unexampled In the
history of our civilization; in short, that
the new and the mightier South is rapidly
emerging from the blight and desolations
of the civil war, and promises in short
time to attain a high degree of prosperity.
This marvellous development can be
truthfully affirmed, not simply, or
chiefly, IN respect to railway
transportation, or to mining, or
manufactures, but to every material IN
terest of the South and to almost every
section of it. The exceptional stations are
those which are destitute of direct rail
way or water communications with the
markets of the world. These, and tbeSe
only. are vet to feel the forces which
quicken the sluggish currents of the old
life, and these, no doubt, in compnta
lively short time, will hear the whirl Of
the wheels that weave the web OF towhs.
The contents of this report will be revela
tions to the country, even to the Southern
people themselves, for they disclose q
wealth of opportunities for enter
prise and industry which is un-
paralleled The advantages of the South
for agricultural pursuits, not simply for
the cultivation of cotton, sugar, and rice
but for agricultural development in all
it's branches and for manufacturing, for
mining the precious metals, for coal and
iron (Which are more substantial founda-
tions of prosperity, for numbering and
for stock raising are being appreciated
by the people of other parts of the Union,
and already thousands of enterprising g i'm
migrants from the North and West, and
millions and even hundreds of millions oi

suicide at the Grave of His Mother.

NEW YORK, Feb. Harry NJ. Getty,
twenty-one years old, whose residence
was in New York, committed suicide on
his mothers grave in the East Moriches
a. IL cemetery Monday night His body
was found yesterday morning. He had
severed the arteries in his wrist with
small pocket knife. The young mans
mother died about five years ago. She
had led an unhappy life with her hus-
band, which led to their separation about
seven years ago. Both were devotedly
attached to the children, and the boy,
Harry, fairly worshipped his mother. 1t
is thought that his grief drove him crazy.
1t was his habit to visit his mother's s
grave every Sunday.

NEW YORK, Feb. mo work was done
this morning on the piers of the New Jer-
sey Central and New Jersey Southern rail
ways, piers and IA, North river. The
freight handlers on both piers having quit
work yesterday morning, the officials of
the companies closed the gates and re-
fused all freight. Those who had shipped
goods were allowed to take them to other
piers The officers of the New Jersey Cen
trail Company decline to say why they do
not secure men to handle freight, and the
opinion among officers of the other roads
is that the roads being in the hands of re
ceivers, and therefore under the protec-
tion of the court, it is the intention to Sc
cure the prosecution of the leaders.
